BCBA | Community Sports Training Center will be playing Host to Momee Friends of Long Island for their End of Summer Community Fitness Fundraiser & Food Drive Event.

The event will take place on Saturday August 20th between 10am and 1pm and help benefit Long Island Cares and Lana’s World Hunger Dream. Admission is FREE for anyone with non-perishable food donation.

In August 2015, 8 year old Lana had an idea to raise money to buy food for those in need. By selling t-shirts online and holding a Zumba-thon, she quickly raised funds to purchase food to replenish the shelves of local food pantries.

In February of this year, Momee Friends of Long Island recognized her outstanding efforts and awarded her as their Shining Child of the Month. It is truly Lana’s dream to end world hunger as she continues to find ways to help others.

This Summer, Lana is serving as Momee Friends of Long Island Junior Mentor to its youth program. She is leading a group in this special summer project to collect donations for Long Island Cares.
